A Heroic Remedy.

Mrs. Archer is very good woman
and one who believes in keeping the
household as free from the contamin-
alton Of the world as possible. But
she has a husband and three growing
boys, and they are, to use their own
words, Cup to snuff"
81 do wish you wouldn't use so
much slang" the good woman would
say in tone of remonstrance.
"Why, mother, we must keep up
with the times" the boys would an
swer "you're away back"
Don't swear, john" she said to
her husband one day.
"That isn't swearing, everybody talks
that way" he said.
No more was said just then, but
few days later Mrs. Archer suddenly
remarked at the supper table:
Great Scott! Kitty must have a
lot of cheek to think We can eat but
ter as salt as this stuff"
Mr.. Archer looked up in a startled
manner, but before he could speak
his wife continued:
"Holy Moses 1t makes me tired
to drink tea as cold as ice water"
The boys kept an uncomfortable
silence. Presently Mrs. Archer said
THAT condemned old crank of a
Jones was here to see you again to-
day. John. l told the old chrome
you had no use for him, though"
One of the boys swallowed biscuit
the wrong way at that moment, and
nearly choked to death.
"Great Caesar !" observed Mrs.
Archer in a placid voice, totally op-
posed to the wild variety of her Ian
guage, 81 nearly forgot that l have to
see Teller down town this eve. Go
ing out on a little racket Of my owr.
Ia, ia, love; you see I'm not SO fresh
as / used to be. No flies on me-so
long," and with an air that was the
counterpart of John Archer's own the
good woman staggered from the ta-
BILE.
The English language, pure and
undefled, is spoken in that family
now, and the vocabulary of slang has
fallen into welcome desuetude. .---Ex.

How Some Railroad Fares are Collect
ed in the Lumber Region.

A railroad conductor who used to
run up in the Marienettc and Hurley
regions of Wisconsin, and who is now
cooling off in Chicago from the effects
of some warm experiences which he
had in that benighted section, enter
tanned a party of friends Sunday in
the following vein: II had been told
when ] first took charge of the train
that wculd have tough lot to deal
with. The first car that l entered on
the occasion am telling about was
full of the hardest looking customers
l ever saw. There wasn't sober
man in the lot. approached each
man and said Tickets in a firm but
petite way. They all gave me big
laugh, and when l had gone through
the car l hadn't a ticket or a cent to
show for my work. I felt as though l
was in great luck to come out alive.
entered the next car, and encoun-
tered an individual who was Infinite
ly harder looking than the chaps l
had left. sAid Ticket to him, and
he shrugged his great shoulders.
"'How much did you get out Of
that other carr he asked.
II told him not ticket, not cent.
What are you going to do about
itY
II told him l didn't know.
"'Kin you afford itr he growled.
81 told him / couldn't.
"'Then you'll get bounced-lose

of it.
"Well, you WON'T he said. Gin.
me your cap. I'll get your tickets
handed him my cap avd insignia
and he went forward. The first man
he came to he hit under the ear and
bawled out: Gimme your ticket OF
your fare, or I'll bury you in the
floor
"The man recovered and handed
the thumper bill.
"'You don't get no change this ere
trip said the acting conductor, and
he hadn't more than said that than he
hit another man under the ear. Tick
ct or fare, says the acting conductor
and that man unloadsd.
I'm less time than it takes me te
tell it every man in the car was on biz
feet with money in his hand waiting
to pay, and every one Of them did
pay.

Didn't Know His Man.

Some years ago 4 big, fat and POM
pous man strolled into sleeping car
on board Union Pacific train and he
settled in a seat. The sleeping-car
conductor put his hand on the should
er of the large, globular man and ask
ed him if he had Pullman ticket.
The wide man spread his legs little
wider, SO as to take up little more
room, breathed in about 2,700 cubic
feet of Nebraska ozone and said he
did not have to have ticket. "You
have to show ticket here in this Car
or 60 into the car where you belong"
said the urbane conductor who assists
Sir George Pullman in giving his be-
loved sleep. "We are not carrying
people this summer just for the pur-
pose of cultivating friendly feeling
between man and man."
"Do you know" said the large man
as he threw back his coat so as to
show a two pound diamond, "that l
can have you out Of job in three
minutes and hang your pelt on the
fence as soon as you get to Omaha :"
II know that if you don't show me
your authority for riding in this car I
will call the porter and We will use
you to lubricate the growing State of
Nebraska. You may be an eminent
man, but you haye way of conceal
ing it that would battle any conductor
in the United States"
"Sir, my name is household word
from New York to San Francisco.
You ought to be able to recognize q
man who has been in public life as
long as have"
Possibly So" replied the conduc-
tor, taking off his coat and calling the
porter, "but you look to me like a
man who has struck popular chord
in leaf lard or quelled the national
cry for an earnest and tenacious style
of glue. AS said before, the rules
of this company require that you pro-
duce currency, pass or ticket, or get
off and walk. Will you show us
your credentials or earn the everlast-
ing enmity of the road by falling of
the platform and mussing up the right
of way ?"
The large mans breath came quick
and his brow grew black, as he ground
his teeth and went into large, yellow
special car that was attached to the
train, and we afterwards learned that
he was Leland Stanford, who has since
that filled to overfowing a seat in the
United States senate.
The conductor continued to hold
his position for years after, though
several times he made this same sad
error of not recognizing some of our
most eminent men in politics, art and
letters.-New York World.
